Chapter 635 Military Ticket 4
Irene’s suggestion made Paul smile dumbly.
He waved his hand and said, "Theoretically it is completely feasible, but it is completely unoperable at this stage."
Irene was unconvinced and pouted and asked: "Why?"< br>
Paul shrugged his shoulders and explained: "Didn't I just say that? The amount of money and material wealth in society must maintain a dynamic balance. If there is more money and less material, there will be inflation. If there is less money and more material, there will be inflation. Deflation. I think human beings today still lack the ability to reasonably quantify the total wealth of society, so they cannot judge how much paper money should be printed every year. If they are not careful, they can destroy the prestige of the royal government.”
"And acceptance among the people is also a big problem. If you rashly claim that it has the same effect as real money and silver, everyone will think that the Royal Government is robbing."
"So now we can only use it in the military. This kind of place is highly obedient and has a small scope. It is easy to control and repair if something goes wrong."
"Okay!" Eileen was a little frustrated, "It seems that we can't rush it, I don't know. Can you see the day when the streets are full of people using banknotes? "
"Ahem, Paul." Catherine looked at her fiancé, her eyes softer than ever before, "You should mention this idea to His Majesty as soon as possible."
——
"Based on the above, I think this convenience can effectively solve the dilemma of insufficient military expenditure of the Royal Government, and it is worth a try."
At the royal meeting convened by King Rodney XVIII, Paul talked eloquently, details Introduced his own military ticket idea.
After discussing with the two princesses that day, at Catherine's urging, Paul went to the king that day and reintroduced his immature ideas to him.
After Rodney XVIII listened carefully to Paul's narrative, he was very interested in his thoughts.
After he went back, he thought about it alone for a day. The more he thought about it, the more he realized that it was very feasible to use military coupons made of paper to replace military pay.
After agreeing in his heart, Rodney XVIII couldn't wait to convene a royal meeting.
After asking Paul to speak again in front of all the ministers, Rodney XVIII asked: "Everyone, what do you think? Let me tell you my point of view first, Earl Grayman's idea It’s a good medicine, I think you can try it.”
The ministers had different reactions. There were too many novel things in Paul’s words, such as general equivalents, inflation and deflation. Some people looked confused, some frowned, and some suddenly became enlightened.
After a while of whispers, Count Naik Scarlet stood up and echoed: "I agree with your Majesty and Count Grayman. You can try it."
He is The finance minister of the kingdom, any idea that can save money from him is a good idea.
Count Morin, the head of intelligence, said: "Your Majesty, if you don't handle it well, it will be bad if the soldiers mutiny."
As the head of intelligence, he instinctively guarded against all possible dangers.
Rodney XVIII said: "But we cannot give up a good idea because of a dangerous event that has not yet happened."
"Oh, you are right, Your Majesty, I It means to do this with caution."
Palace Minister Rupert said: "I also think that Count Grayman's idea can be tried. And from a certain point of view, the military vote. It is equivalent to binding the soldiers to the royal government.”
"Bound?" Everyone present looked at the Prime Minister with doubts.
Rupert explained: “Think about it, the military coupons issued by the Royal Government are currently only recognized by the Royal Government as valid. If a soldier rebels and runs to Jarl with the military coupons, Can you buy what you want in Sri Lanka’s territory? No, military tickets are useless there, and his wealth is equivalent to being invalidated!”
Rupert’s words made everyone’s eyes light up.
Even Paul was surprised. Even he himself did not expect this. He originally thought that the military stamps were simply to solve the problem of insufficient metal currency.
Mr. Palace Prime Minister is really an old fox.
Rodney XVIII was very happy. He discovered another wonderful use of military tickets. He glanced at everyone, "Does anyone have any other opinions?"
No one raised any objections. It seemed that Rupert's words just now made everyone agree. .
"Well, in that case, Count Scarlet."
"Your Majesty!"
"It's up to you to study. What denominations should the military coupons have, what is the denomination amount, what pattern should be printed on it, and what goods can be exchanged for it. I think you should take advantage of Graiman The earl asked for more advice before leaving the royal capital."
"Yes, Your Majesty," the finance minister accepted the order.
"As for who should be entrusted with printing military stamps..."
To research a new type of paper material, it must be manufactured in large quantities...
So we need to find a company that has certain accomplishments in papermaking and printing...
Rodney XVIII looked at Paul, "If we need to use military funds as soon as possible, there seems to be no other choice. "
Everyone looked at Paul. Now everyone knows that the papermaking technology and printing technology in the Northwest Bay are the most advanced.
The idea of military stamps was proposed by Earl Grayman. It is difficult not to make people wonder whether he has some selfish motives in this regard.
Many people even looked at Paul teasingly.
My day!
Feeling the attention of everyone, Paul cursed in his heart. If he had known that Rodney XVIII would be asked to speak out at today's meeting, he would have hidden his merit and fame.
"Count Grayman, I think you should be prepared for this. I hope that after Count Scarlet perfects the plan, you can print it out immediately."
Since The king has already spoken, wouldn't it be hypocritical for me to refuse?
Paul had no choice but to respond: "Since Your Majesty trusts me so much, I will start preparations when I get back, but I hope you can recommend a skilled seal engraver to me."
Rodney XVIII nodded, "I will let him go to you with the plan."
Paul approached the king again - he was sitting next to the king - and whispered in his ear Asked: "Well...Your Majesty, I want to confirm. This...is this a business transaction, right?"
Rodney XVIII frowned and replied in a low voice: "Of course, I'm sure I won’t let your efforts go in vain, but I hope you give me a cheap price.”
“Oh, definitely, Your Majesty, I won’t include the cost of research and development in the price.”
Paul felt relieved and straightened himself up.
Although he left the job to Paul, Rodney XVIII still felt a little strange in his heart.
To actually exchange real money for a pile of paper, if it were my old self, I would definitely think it was a crazy idea.
Oh, I hope this military ticket can really play a huge role as imagined.
